Although the phrase "a wall of separation between church and state" has been part of American rhetoric since its founding, there has always been contention over the idea. Many people today, including Governor Walker, seek to find loopholes to give state funding to religious schools. The separation of church and state is extremely important to protect the government from religious bias, but how well are we really keeping the two realms separated? Come learn about the issues and discuss this question and more at next Thursday's meeting!
